After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks snuck past the Bucks 114-110. The breakneck pace played right into Mavericks' hands. The Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
